On Monday, representatives Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) and Rob Wittman (R-Va.) argued Biden has only given vague threats and cheap talk about standing up to Communist China.<\/p>\n<p>The two Republicans insisted Biden has failed to hold Beijing accountable for its handling of COVID-19. Together, they highlighted their bill titled the World Deserves To Know Act, which would impose Russian-style sanctions on top Communist Party officials.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">As the leader of the free world, the U.S. must hold Chinese Communist Party officials accountable for their actions.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m joining <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RobWittman?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@RobWittman<\/a> in introducing legislation that will sanction Chinese Health Agency Officials until there is an investigation into COVID-19 origins. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Lukhc92SHc\">pic.twitter.com\/Lukhc92SHc<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Rep.

If they do, that will avoid sanctions,\u201d he explained. \u201cI want to make sure too that we ban any dollars from United States going to the Chinese National Health Commission.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wittman and Stefanik added Biden has proven unable to punish China for COVID-19 and Congress must take the matter into its own hands.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/sen-johnson-democrat-media-suppress-information-about-more-than-5000-vaccine-deaths\/\">Sen.
